Marie Curie Fellowship

The Euro-Mediterranean Centre for Climate Change (CMCC) welcomes Marie Curie Fellowship applications in its fields of research.

CMCC is a new established Italian non profit research institution supported by the Ministry for the Environment and Territory, the Ministry for Education, University and Research and the Ministry for Economy. CMCC is operated by a Research Consortium consisting of different Italian public and private research Institutions and led by the Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia (INGV).

Main research areas are:

* Climate variability and change
* Global ocean and climate
* Climate and chemistry
* Aerosols and radiative effects
* Predictions and scenarios of GHG emissions
* Assessment of the economic value of impacts of climate change
* Analysis of mitigation and adaptation policies
* Impacts on soil and coasts
* Impacts on agriculture, forest, and natural Ecosystems

The 'Marie Curie Actions' have long been one of the most popular and appreciated features of the Community Framework Programmes for Research and Technological Development. They have developed significantly in orientation over time, from a pure mobility fellowships programme to a programme dedicated to stimulating researchers' career development. In the Seventh Framework Programme, the 'Marie Curie Actions' have been regrouped and reinforced in the 'People' Specific Programme. Individual Fellowship applications can be based upon two schemes:

* Intra-European Fellowships for Career Development (IEF)
* International Incoming Fellowships (IIF)

For more info on conditions for eligibility and latest available calls visit the FP7 People Programme website at http://cordis.europa.eu/fp7/people/home_en.html or CMCC website at www.cmcc.it

Next deadline is 19 August 2008!

Warm regards
